The book was published origi nally in 1958 by Harper & Broth ers and has been reissued at 33 cents in a Crest edition through arrangement with that company. Eleanor Roosevelt wrote in the foreword: "Juvenile delinquency is an explosive and complex prob lem, but it is not a problem that is unsolvable. The difficulty lies in our homes and in the environ ments we have created for our children in our communities." Mr. Salisbury did the research for his book in crowded areas of New York City and other metro politan centers where teen-age gangs have flourished for genera linns. Knowing what the various factors are that create an environment In which delinquency can flourish is the first step in finding the cure, the author infers. "The school, of course, has the central role in the development of wholesome social attitudes in the young," he declares. "There is probably not a single oily school system in the United States which is not prepared and which does not already possess al most all the facilities to place into operation an active improve ment program for adolescents within a matter of weeks, If not days," he adds. He quotes New York City school directors as saying that society must take the blame, rather than the schools, for the situation in which our young people find them selves, placing the real source of the difficulty in the home and in weakening of the family unit. "There is no doubt," he quotes, "that families have tended to shift the burden over to the schools without making provision for the costs. "However," the author contin ues, "educators must share the responsibility for the use to which they put the public funds which they obtain. One educator is quoted as rec oinmending extension of the school day to 5 p.m. "Send the kids home tired, keep them busy," he says. "When classes are over at 3 p.m., offer two hours more of hobby, recrea tion or craft work." The program is working very effectively in some New York schools. "There is a much closer rela tionship between adolescent de linquency and child labor laws than is realized or willingly admitted by many socially-minded persons," Mr. Salisbury declares. "These laws actually constitute a form of discrimination against able-bodied boys who find it diffi cult to study and whose families are in dire need of their financial support." He quotes Dr. Martin R. Has kell, sociologist, as stating that "child labor laws arc designed, not basically to protect children. but to remove boys from compe tition with adult labor." With a legislative session com ing up in Oregon, Dr. Haskell's contention might well give lood for thought in our own state. ness thinking on expansion? Here there are definitely two schools of ihoughl. The National Assn. of Purchas ing Agents reports ill per cent of its members say they plan to go on with present plans despite high interest rales involved in financ ing expansion. But it doesn't say what any change in business thinking on future sales outlook may do. Still others think that business must go on spending to modernize plants if they want to compete with their rivals here and abroad. I Part of West Europe's and Ja pan's sales edge in world mar kets is due to lower labor costs lhan American rivals. But part is due to having rebuilt plants from scratch after the war new, mod ern plants that turn out goods cheaper than older American ones can. Contrary minded say that busi ness plans for expansion can and will change very quickly if sales outlook docsn t come up to expec tationsand especially if the pres ent plant then seems capable of producing all that can be sold. If this happens, one of the fac tors counted on to push the growth of the economy business spend ing for inventories and expansion would be lacking. But government spending, at all levels, shows every sign of being higher, and staying higher, this year. And the most important prop of all, consumer spending, shows no sign of weakening. It has stayed high despite any qualms over the stock market tremors. have foreseen how it exhausted him at times. A slower pace with more rest would have been recom mended, he said. Tim M filler Side By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI) - President Eisenhower were an ordinary tourist, it would be easy to imagine a scene that would take place soon at the White House. The President would be upstairs in his bedroom unpacking the souvenirs he brought back from his Latin American trip. Suddenly, the corridors would reverberate with what would sound like a load of buckshot ricocheting off the bottom of a galvanized bucket. Guards and secret servicemen would spring up in alarm and, The other desk is to please me I get this feeling particularly about this period of the year, for now is the time when across the land thousands of memo-pad Neros and file cabinet Caligulas issue a stern edict "This office is getting to look like the city dump again.

He is 69. Is he going to put himself through the wringer again this year with a trip to the Soviet Union perhaps in June? It s a question which no doubt will get plenty of consideration by his doctors and advisers. Somebody goofed on this trip An exploratory party, which pro ceded Eisenhower to South Amcr ica to make arrangements, de cided it was too hot and strenuous for Mrs. Eisenhower to under lake. So she stayed home. But (lie schedule worked out for the President was so terribly fast, and in such overpowering heat that even Hie reporters and aides who accompanied him fell the fatigue, too. In December Eisenhower visited Asia, Europe and North Africa. he pace was slower, the heat ess intense. 116 stood up well. In mid-May he has to go to Geneva for a summit meeting. Any trip to the Soviet Union would have to follow that. Four such trips in seven months ime would be tough on anyone. bul particularly on a man of Eis enhower's ago who in five years has had a heart attack, an intes tinal operation and a slight stroke. Presidential press secretary James C. Hagcrty, always anx ious lo put the best possible light un Eisenhower's activities, insist ed Eisenhower was feeling line throughout his South American journey. But Ihcre were limes when the President looked worn out lo re porters with him. After Eisenhower's return here Monday Marvin Arrowsmith, As sociatcd Press White House re porter who has covered Eisenhow er since 1953, reported that some of those who accompanied Eisen hower knew for a fact that his doctors were deeply concerned at several points on the tour. Arrowsmith said it is doubtful the President's doctors would have given a go-ahead for his South American journey if Ihey could Since the Chief Executive is not an ordinary tourist, he probably avoided becoming a bongo owner during his travels south of the border. If so, he is luckier than most of his countrymen. Nowadays, a U. S. citizen who visits the Caribbean area brings home a bongo drum as surely as one who visits Switzerland brings back a walch. Not only that, for the past two or three years we have been im porting bongos in large numbers. Not only that, several U. S. firms are mass-producing domesticated bongos. I was blissfully unaware of the bongo boom until last Christmas when the yulelide peace was shat tered by what I thought was one of the children emptying a sack of marbles into the bathtub. I regret to say I was mistaken. The disturbance came from a set of bongo drums which some mis guided Santa Claus had deposited down the chimney. In the following weeks I was to learn that bongo "playing" is not restricted to children. Some ot my adult friends have taken it up, with uniformly disastrous results. Convinced that we are facing a new menace lo our national sanity, I stopped by a local mu sic store to investigate. This con firmed my darkest suspicions. The bongo clerk told me that he alone sold more than 300 sets during the Christmas season at prices ranging from $8.95 lo $.13, SO. "It shouldn't be long before every American home has bon gos," he said. Shuddering, I asked if he could account for their current popular ity. It accompanied, he said, the recent rise of calypso music. Amateurs took to them, he added. because they don't require any formidable amount of talent I don't know what the bongo binge is going to lead lo. But I recently heard a story which in dicatcs the direction. It was told to me by a colleague with whom I was discussing the problem He swears thai while visiting a neighbor he saw bongos being played by a French poodle. has merely hidden the rubble where the boss can't see it. Look around you in your own office. Aren't the men with the neatest desks also the most neu rotic employes in the place? Don't they also include most of the hy pochrondriacs, the chronic false ulcer victims, and the fear-ridden decision dodgers? It is also a business truism that most embezzlers and potential embezzlers are fastidious about their desks. In their case the neat desk is the sign of a guilty mind. On Ihe other hand, show me a man who keeps a cluttered desk and I'll show you one ot nature's noblemen one who takes joy in his work, is gentle with his chil dren, raises not his voice against his wife, and never; never, never kicks his dog around. A clean desk looks fine in a kindergarten. A clean desk in an office hides more from the boss than it tells him. A smart boss is suspicious or should be of an employe who spends loo much time polishing apples, his desk or his fingernails. The A I hi a ii ;h By United Press International Today is Tuesday, March 8, the 68th day of the year, with 298 more days in 1960. The moon is approaching its full phase. The morning stars are Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. On this day in history: In 1841, the foremost American jurist of his lime and justice of the United Stales Supreme Court, Oliver Wendell Holmes, was born. In 1855, the first bridge was built over the Niagara River to connect United States and Ca nadian railroads. In 1894, New York became the first state to pass a law requiring dogs to be licensed. A thought for today: American jurist Oliver Wendell Holmes said: "Learn the sweet magic of a cheerful face: not always smil- ng, but at least serene." Two Of Kvcrylliiiig By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) The great American dream today is to have two of everything. You aren'l a success unless you have twin beds in your bedroom it least two baths in your house and a two-car garage.
